Simply excellent

The Huus Quell is now a member of the Leading Hotels of the World

It doesn't get any better than this: The renowned international hotel association The Leading Hotels of the World (LHW) has accepted the new 5-star superior Hotel Huus Quell into its illustrious circle. The flagship of the Appenzeller Huus will bear this global seal of quality as soon as it opens at the beginning of 2025.

The decisive factor for the outstanding award was, among other things, the most modern hotel spa in Switzerland, which will be located under the roof of Huus Quell. Its indoor and outdoor facilities, crowned by an impressive rooftop pool, are second to none - and not just in this country. To start with, 30 rooms and suites will have exclusive access to the Quell Spa. Further suites and luxury apartments will follow by 2026.

New hideaway in perfect tranquillity: "We are delighted to welcome Hotel Huus Quell to The Leading Hotels of the World," says Deniz Omurgonulsen, Vice President, Member Experience, The Leading Hotels of the World. "With a focus on wellness and tranquil surroundings, this stunning property is in line with our commitment to providing exceptional and personalized experiences for our guests. Hotel Huus Quell embodies the essence of tranquility and offers a sanctuary where visitors can truly relax and socialize. We look forward to introducing this new wellness community to LHW travelers."

Relaxation in the heart of Appenzell: Since the opening of Huus Bären (3-star superior) and Huus Löwen (4-star superior), in the middle of the village of Gonten, the Appenzeller Huus resort has developed into a special vacation destination in Eastern Switzerland. For General Manager Tim-Martin Weber, inclusion in the prestigious group of The Leading Hotels of the World is confirmation that the new five-star deluxe Hotel Quell will be one of the best hotels in the country. He says: "The many successes at the individual stages of the overall Appenzeller Huus project motivate us to continue working together on the vision of the Lifestyle Community every day. Here, in harmony with nature, in a highly professional hotel with state-of-the-art wellness facilities, with the largest wine cellar in Switzerland and an innovative bar concept, we will set international standards with the help of our new partner The Leading Hotels of the World."

Holistic relaxation: In addition to the classic offerings such as pools, herbal and meditation saunas, salt steam bath and rain room, the innovative wellness offerings also include hypeable oxygen therapy, cryotherapy, infrared therapy, biohacking and much more. The comfortable relaxation areas are based on the themes of mountains, lakes and forests. Accordingly, organic materials are used in the construction; waterfalls, sound and light effects ensure a deeply relaxing ambience.

The other planned buildings in the resort, in which condominiums and serviced apartments will be built, will also benefit from the 5-star service package at Huus Quell. Wellness, gastronomy and culture - with its own curated event venue, the Appenzeller Forum - are all in one place. With this holistic approach for body, mind and soul, the Appenzeller Huus resort aims to sensitize its residents to an all-round healthy lifestyle.

About the Appenzeller Huus: At 902 meters above sea level, a contemporary retreat and relaxation resort called "Appenzeller Huus" has been under construction in the historic town of Gonten since 2023. The three-star superior Hotel Huus Bären (20 rooms) and Hotel Huus Löwen (24 rooms) are already welcoming guests, while the opening of the five-star Hotel Huus Quell (30 rooms) with one of the most innovative wellness areas in Switzerland is planned for the first quarter of 2025. In addition to 43 serviced apartments, the new bar "The Botanicum", an additional restaurant and Switzerland's largest wine cellar will complete the hotel resort. The motto "A Wellness Lifestyle Community" by investor Jan Schoch is emblazoned across the entire project.

The gourmet restaurant Bärenstobe welcomes travelers and locals alike, as well as the cosy Löwenstobe, the Lehnerstobe, the Jakob Schlaepfer Lounge, the Appenzellerstöbli and the Taverne. In the Schmitte with Cigar Lounge and the centuries-old cellar vault, cellar master Hans Rhyner looks after the treasures. Further gastronomic facilities and a summer terrace are being created. The Appenzeller Forum in the Löwensaal regularly offers concerts, readings and lectures with culinary accompaniment. This room with a Steinway grand piano is also ideal for larger celebrations or seminars.
